In Equinox we are working on an implementation of the OSGi R5 Core Framework specification. One proposed addition for the R5 specification was the support of pre-release versions [1]. The OSGi alliance has agreed to pull this new feature from the future R5 Framework specification. This feature had to potential to be very disruptive to the community, for one example see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=367991
I bring this forward to the cross project list because in M5 I have removed pre-release support (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=369137). I doubt anyone has started to use this new API, but just in case, the following API got added during M4 and has been removed in the latest M5 builds from Equinox. org.osgi.framework.Version#isReleaseVersion() Please comment in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=369137 if you have any concerns.
